The wall clock points to 11:30.
After preparing the meal, Chen Zhaodi quickly came out to clean up the cigarette butts scattered on the floor and swept them into the trash can. Then she went to the bathroom to get a mop, and suddenly ran out and shouted at Old Man Chen, who was watching TV: "Dad! This isn't the countryside. You have to flush the toilet after you use it!"
"How dare you yell at your father! You've gone too far!" Old Man Chen glared fiercely at Chen Zhaodi. "I don't know how to flush, can't you just flush it and be done with it? It's no big deal!"
Chen Zhaodi lowered his head, turned around and went into the bathroom, where the sound of flushing water could be heard.
When she came out, Old Man Chen had already brought the food out of the kitchen and was eating by himself.
Chen Zhaodi stared at him for a while, then decided not to try to persuade him to return to the countryside.
The living room next door.
Zhang Ran and Dong Chan also enjoyed meals delivered from a five-star hotel.
While eating, Zhang Ran used the surveillance video as a side dish, because Old Man Chen was beating Chen Zhaodi and demanding money from her.
"Dad! I really have no money, please stop hitting me!" Chen Zhaodi wailed, begging for mercy.
Old Chen slapped her harder, each slap landing harder than the last. "How did you go out to buy groceries if you didn't have any money? She gave you money to spend, but not me. I think you're asking for it!"
Even after Zhang Ran finished eating and Old Man Chen was tired of beating her, Chen Zhaodi still hadn't handed over the bank card.
The afternoon flew by, and in the evening, the father and daughter sat down together for dinner.
Old Chen kept glancing at the clock on the wall. "It's already 6:30. Why hasn't that brat come back yet?"
Chen Zhaodi glanced at the clock subconsciously, "He's probably busy with work and is staying at the company to work overtime."
Company? Old Chen's eyes darted around, and he ordered her, "Tomorrow you follow her and find out which company she works for, what she does, and how much she earns a month."
Chen Zhaodi: "Hmm."
Zhang Ran still hadn't returned by 10 p.m., and Old Man Chen couldn't stay awake any longer, so he went back to his room to sleep.
Chen Zhaodi was left alone in the living room.
At eleven o'clock, the sound of the door opening came from inside. Chen Zhaodi was startled and looked over. She saw that only Zhang Ran had returned. She subconsciously asked, "Where is Achan?" Achan was deaf and mute. She had actually asked a disabled person to drive her. On second thought, the disabled person was quite nice.
"She went home. She'll pick me up for work this morning." Zhang Ran got closer and saw her face clearly. It wasn't as swollen as it was at noon, but it was still quite swollen. "Did Grandpa hit you?"
Chen Zhaodi quickly explained, "I argued with him for a bit. He wanted money, but I didn't give it to him." She then took out her bank card and started recounting how much she had spent on groceries and how much money was left in the card, cautiously probing, "...I was so hungry that I spent a dollar on meat buns."
This card was opened by Zhang Ran using Chen Zhaodi's ID card. There wasn't much money in it, only five thousand yuan.
“No need to report the expenses.” Zhang Ran interrupted forcefully. “From now on, I will deposit five thousand yuan into the card every month.” She looked at her mother meaningfully. “Five thousand yuan is the amount for groceries for one month. There’s no more. If it’s not enough, you’ll have to figure it out yourself. If you don’t spend it all, you can keep the rest or give it to someone else. I won’t interfere.”
Five thousand yuan a month? Chen Zhaodi thought to herself, a flattering smile on her face: "Mom will save any extra money for you."
Zhang Ran ignored her, went to the bathroom to wash up, and when she came out, she passed by the living room and saw Chen Zhaodi curled up on the sofa to rest, just like last night.
She didn't speak to the other person again, but went straight into the side bedroom and closed the door.
